This intrigues me. I have just ordered the large size. On screen it looks beautiful and the borderlessness really appeals. I saw it on instagram and it looked very readable. We'll see when it gets here. Very curious.
Yes, it comes from the same Hong Kong distributers as the Duck Soup decks (good as, weirdly, there's less likely to be a Customs charge coming from Hong Kong than the US) and (I think) Seven Stars decks. So if you have Mister Punch or the Deck of the Dead, it's that cardstock - less linen-y, but the same thickness. I'm very happy with it. Love everything about it.Le Fanu, are you also happy with the card stock?
I was just looking at the different sizes on the website and the larger one has "superior smooth" cardstock so there will be a difference between the poker size and the large size in terms of cardstock. I personally love the large size and am glad I went for this one. The largeness adds to the sumptuousness and intoxicating colours!I've had the poker size a little while, and it is a very lovely, well made deck to work with. It has a softness and warmth to it, but is rather quirky and definitely not bland. I've just ordered the large size and look forward to enjoying the artwork up close and bigger. The poker deck will make a great travel deck.

That's great to hear, thanks Le Fanu. I don't have a huge collection and have only bought different versions of the same deck twice before (Anna K self published and MM and German Von Waite pocket and standard). But this is such a beautiful deck and pleasure to work with, I couldn't resist the large size. It's a plus for me too that the card stock is different as feel less like like I'm buying the same thing again!I was just looking at the different sizes on the website and the larger one has "superior smooth" cardstock so there will be a difference between the poker size and the large size in terms of cardstock.
